Abstract
<p>The severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a novel infectious disease that is in rapid growth. Several trials are going on worldwide to find a solution for this pandemic. The viral replication can be blocked by inhibiting the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (SARS-CoV-2 Spro), and the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (SARS-CoV-2 Mpro). The binding of potential small molecules to these proteins can possibly inhibit the replication and transcription of the virus. The spice molecules that are used in our food have the properties of antiviral, antifungal, and antimicrobial nature. As spice molecules are consumed in the diet, hence its antiviral properties against SARS-CoV-2 will benefit in a significant manner. Therefore, in this work, the blind molecular docking of 30 selected spice molecules (through ADME property screening) was performed for the identification of potential inhibitors for the Spro and Mpro of SARS-CoV-2. We found that all the molecules bind actively with the SARS-CoV-2 Spro and Mpro. However, the molecule, Piperine, is found to have the highest binding affinity among the 30 screened molecules. We anticipate immediate wet-lab experiments and clinical trials in support of this computational study might be helpful in inhibiting the SARS-CoV-2 virus.</p>

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
